kiwi crate

Pinterest always gives me the best ideas. One that came to fruition this week is the Kiwi Crate.
It’s something I had been itching to try and I finally decided to sign
up. Once a month a small green Kiwi Crate will now arrive at our
doorstep, addressed to Adam. Each month’s crate has a different theme
and different projects in it. This month’s theme is “Pets” and it came
with a coloring book about taking care of pets, the materials to build a
playground for a cardboard puppy and the materials to make your own
small pet. Adam absolutely adored it. I had him play with the coloring
book while I laid out the materials for the playground. He was naming
and talking to the pets while he waited. After we built the swing he put
the puppy in going, “Hold on tight! Weeeee!”. I was so happy he was
having so much fun, I knew I made an awesome decision buying the crate.
After the swing was also built, he would move them both from place to
place in the house making noises and talking to the puppy and a little
kiwi. At one point he brought them to me and said, “It’s your birthday
cake! Happy birthday! It’s your birthday slide and my birthday swing!”
Such fun to see his imagination go with just some cardboard, straws and
stickers.
